The first of races for the Americas cup,
between the Scotch Guitar Thistle and the
American sloop Volunteer was sailed the
9th, over theinside course OF the New York
Yacht club, as required by the deed OF gilt
governing tho possession oitbe cup. and the
Yankee sloop won in fine style. The dis.
tance sailed wa t~hirty-eight miles. There
vasnot wind enough tustart the boats until
two hours after the time announced
In the official programme. When it came
IL was light, but there was enough to en-
| able the yachts TO complete the course well
within the time limited-in fact with
two hours to spare. 1t was just the kind
OF weather which admirers of the Thistle
had predicted would mean victory for the
Scotch boat. II was lust the sort OF
weather which admirers of the Volunteer
most dreaded. Under these circuin-
stances nobody would ave been surpris-
ed had the Thistle won. Everybody ex-
peeted at least a close race. But after the
first twenty minutes il was no race at all,
it became a procession with the Thistle
falling further and further astern. From
start TO finsih the Thistle stood no nance
OF winning. The Volunteer vent over the
course in 4 b. 53 min. Is see. The Thistle's
time was 8 h. 12 min. 46 sec. Thus the
Thistle was beaten by 10 min. 2S sec. or,
alter crediting her with the five seconds
time allowance due her, by 10 min. 20 sec.
The Yolunt eer beat the foreigner so badly
that the ~latter's most enthusiastic cham
pions have only to say that something in
explicable is the matter With the
Thistle. Ii was u great day.
The people who went down on
the 300 steamships, river steamboats,.
tugs, steam yachts and boats i~mproyised
for the occasion, numbered easily $4,000,
and the scene presented by the heterogen-
Gus mass OF craft before, at and after the
start, cannot be described. They covered
an area of fifty or more acres on the wa
ter, and they kept up a noise throughout
the race that startled the people who
came IRON Europe to see tn eevent.
The yacht race at New York excited but
little interest in London, except in the city
proper, where a large crowd
early in the evening around the bulletins
at the cable offices, dispensing, however,
before the result was known. Yachting
men are interested, but the public paid no
special attention to the race. The next
trial is set for the Goth.

The Record Union is bit persistent
in its false statements that the HER

ing the climate OF the end of the State
in which it is published. The fact is
some time ago the up-country press
set out on most malignant mission
Of writing down this end of the State.
The HERALD at once joined issue and
spiked their guns. The Record Union
was one of the leaders in that unjust
attack. We are not bound by any code
to hush when they cry tace! But We
have never printed an untrue state
lnent about any section of The State
The Record Union claims a climatic
table ef averages contradicts some Of
our statements. Such a claim, if not
a conscious untruth,. is an uncon-
ious bit of stupidity. What We
stated was that on u certain night the
thermometer in many places in the
so-called northern citrus belt went
down to eighteen to twenty-six degrees
above zero. Our authority is the
Signal Service reports. Nor are the
localities from which the reports
came in the mountains. No monthly
average OF temperature will correct
these facts. They are true. The

Our esteemed contemporary should
confine his mind to preva' icating about
mis- little harbor, and let larger game
.lone, or he will tear his little brain
to atoms by subjects above his ca
pacity. If the Union does not know
that Mr.. Cleveland's position to-day
is that occupied by Mr.. Blaine and
the whole Republican party in 1884,
that journals ignorance is even more
Grass than it gets the credit OF be-
ing. But the Union makes another
misstatement when it asserts we
say there is not much difference be.
tween the parties on this issue. Mis-
statements are so in its line that per-
haps when it only gets the tense OF 9
verb wrong we should give it credit
for being as near the truth as it car
get. There is a difference. Blaine
has given the word, and while di

ecstacies be,.ause the Chicago Tribune

trade Republicans and protection

All of which is not news here! But
where did Republican paper learn
these things? Ii has appeared here
tofore that only Democrats were at
loggerheads on the Tariff. Some
days ago another esteemed con-
temporary told us the same thing
of the New York Times. 1t really be-
gins to look as if there was bit OF
dissention in the ranks of our oppo.
nents on this subject. But the Star
fails to grasp the idea. The point is
that The Chicago Tribune has been a
strong Blaine organ until now. 1t i6

UNCoMPLIMENTARY comment is not
unknown to those who notice what
Republican papers have TO say Of
Mr.. Cleveland. But the fact is most
observable that the attacks made
usually a'e to the effect that he was
once Sheriff in Buffalo, or that he
lacks In powers of imagination. In
attac king magistrate on these lines
little account is taken of the temper
Of the American people. We're Mr..
Cleveland filling the position OF her
editary ruler of some petty European
Dukedon, his previous official
position might be pertinently
assailed. Were he drawing a
royal solatium as Poet Laureate under
some crown, the lack Of fervid imag-
ination might be properly made a
charge against him. But as he is the
Chief Magistrate Of a great, free people,
who are all sovereigns, the election OF
a man OF the people to the chief honor
in the nation is quite in keeping with
the genius of our Institutions. And
as his business is to deal with the
dry details Of public affairs, COM
mon sense stands him in far
better stead than would an inagina-
tion 80 brilliant that it's flashes of wit
might be utilized to keep a blast
furnace in fuel. 1t is just here fatal
mistake i. made by such critics. Mr..
Cleveland's reputation as Mayor OF
Buffalo had all to do with his election
as Governor of the Empire State. He
bad shown that he had the genius Of
dealing wisely with public affairs, that
his plodding attention to detail had
enabled him to make timely recon-
mendations touching the temporal
interests Of the public. Noris he the
only plain, commensense Democrat
whose good judgement and close al
tention in just these lines has en-
deared him to the people. When we
institute line of comparison between
our own worthy Mayor and the Presi.
dent of the United States, we are con.
scious of the high compliment Mr.
Workman is paid; but he is deserv'
ing of it. Our Mayor in his annual
message to the City Council which

Pasernalism in Government.

Pasernalism im Government.
One great feature of distinction set
mp by the young Republic of the New
World to mark her departure from
Old World methods ofgovernment,w was
that Of independent manhood as
against Paternalism. This is natural
outgrowth of the fundamental princi-
pie that the government is of the peo-
PIE, by the people and for the people.
Men we're put on manhood suffrage to
govern themselves. To do this i. was
Of the very essential necessity of the
case that they should be men. twas
clearly the Intention of the trainers
of this government that there
should be the very min mum of gov
erning done. The people we're left to
manage their own affairs with the
largest possible liberty, the least pos
sib interference of the law. Before
. community was qualified to vote in
matters of National scope it was pre-
sumed to be able to deal with its own
local affairs. And the individual was
presumed to be capable Of taking care
of his personal interests before he
should take part in legislating for the
benefit of that aggregate body of indi-
viduals known as a community.
For three quarters OF a century thi
policy worked most admirably in the
new Republic, and the results wrought
out under it fully justified the wisdom
of the founders of this Government.
The very best result of it all was
stslwart manhood, which set Ameri-
cans on plane so far above the other
peoples of the earth that they seemed
worthy to be deemed sovereigns in
very deed. This robust strength OF
character attacked the Titanic
forces Of savage nature and subdued
them all to the scientific forces de-
veloped by an advanced and int Iii
gent civilization. Before it's sturdy
blows the forests fell. Guided by its
intelligent self-reliance the streams
were made the servants Of internal
commerce; their cateracts were
spanncd by railroads; the grea'
West was penetrated by these great
highways of modern progress; on the
vast prairies great cities were uI-
built; in the tangles of the forests
villages we're planted; the mines were
opened and worked; waters were
brought out of the snow-capped
mountains to make fertile the plains
Of what was called the Great Ameri-
can Desert, and that waste was made
to bloom with all the beauty of gar
aen. The unaided forces of a sturdy
American manhood did all this, and
by its productive power and fertile re-
sources the country went on and
prospered. Poverty was unknown in
America. Bread riots were unheard
Of in all the length and breadth of the
great continent. American labor was
Of that intelligent, self-reliant, manly
type that 1t asked for no protection
4 needed no protection. 1t put its
hand to great enterprises and it &C.
